USE LIMITATIONS: Bait MUST either be placed in tamper-resistant bait stations or in locations not accessible to children, pets or livestock. DO NOT place bait in areas where there is a possibility of contaminating food or surfaces that come in direct contact with food. To ensure safe use of this product, tamper-resistant bait stations must have the following characteristics: 1) constructed of high-strength material (e.g., metal or injection molded plastic) and resistant to destruction by children and non-target animals; 2) entrance designed so that children and non-target animals cannot reach the bait; 3) internal structure that prevents bait from being shaken loose; 4) access panel which fastens securely and locks (e.g., metal screw or padlock); 5) capable of being securely fastened to a surface (e.g., nailed down); and, 6) clearly labeled: “WARNING POISON”.

Food Processing, Food Manufacturing, Food Storage and Food Service Areas: For areas not directly related to food processing: Use only in non-food or non-feed area where feed, food, packaging and handling equipment are never opened or exposed. For areas where feed or food is processed, served, or stored: In meat and food processing plants (processing areas), use only when plant is not in operation. Remove or cover all food, packaging material and utensils before placing bait in baiting stations. Remove all baits and dead rodents before reuse of the plant (processing areas include storage and service).

Selection of Treatment Areas: Place bait in locations where rats and mice travel and will most likely find and consume the bait. Placement along walls, in corners, by gnawed openings, in and around burrows, and in concealed locations where rats and mice feed is desirable. Maintain a steady supply of fresh bait. Remove any spoiled or contaminated bait promptly.

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS:

For Norway Rats(Rattus norvegicus)and Roof Rats(Rattus rattus): Norway rats usually inhabit the ground floor of structures and burrow in the ground. They will range approximately 15 to 100 m from their nesting area seeking food and water. Roof rats, however, are excellent climbers and usually infest the upper stories of structures. Hence, special attention must be paid to this species ability to climb by placing baits in the roof rats activity area. For both species, eliminate as much of the naturally occurring food as possible and place 3 to 10 packs of bait (usually at intervals of 5-10 m) within the treatment area. Maintain an uninterrupted supply of fresh bait for at least 10 days, or until signs of rat activity cease.

For House Mice(Mus musculus): House mice are excellent climbers and will infest all floors in a structure. Mice will only range approximately 10 m from their nesting area seeking food. Eliminate as much of the naturally occurring food as possible and place 1 pack of bait at intervals of 2-4 m within the treatment area. If a bait placement is not disturbed after several days, move the placement approximately 1 meter. Two (2) packs of bait per placement may be necessary at points of very high mouse activity. Maintain an uninterrupted supply of fresh bait for at least 15 days or until signs of mouse activity cease.

Note: Replace contaminated or spoiled bait immediately. Collect and dispose of all dead animals and unconsumed bait properly.To prevent reinfestation, eliminate food, water and harborage as much as possible. If reinfestation occurs, repeat treatment. Where a continuous source of infestation is present, establish permanent bait stations as necessary.
